Abstract: Current peer-to-peer systems are network-agnostic, often generating large volumes of unnecessary inter-ISP traffic. Although recent work has shown the benefits of ISP-a...
Time-triggered systems are distributed systems in which the nodes are independently-clocked but maintain synchrony with one another. Time-triggered protocols depend on the synchro...
Network coordinates provide a mechanism for selecting and placing servers efficiently in a large distributed system. This approach works well as long as the coordinates continue ...
Due to the inherent difficulty in obtaining experimental data from wikis, past quantitative wiki research has largely been focused on Wikipedia, limiting the degree that it can be...
Security-critical systems are an important application area for formal methods. However, such systems often contain cryptographic subsystems. The natural definitions of these subsy...
